Eric Fraser is a composer and sound artist living and working in Canada, on Treaty Six Territory. Fraser is also a professional deejay and live performer who draws inspiration from the environment around him. The overall physical and political climate and local industrial influences of the Places in which he works form the foundation of his conceptual process. By sampling field recorded and synthesized soundscapes in his musical compositions, Fraser creates a mood of dissonance. He also introduces non-linear patterns and pacing as a tool to create tension in his listeners and viewers.
Fraser has been involved as a composer, sound artist and participant in various electronic music and audio-visual projects in Canada for over a decade. 2019 saw Fraser perform at the Bass Coast Electronic Musical Festival in Canada and conduct a collaborative A/V performance opening for Detroit’s Underground Resistance DJ Stingray with visual artist Gabriel Esteban Molina.
